C. % Mr. Darin hast had much ex* perlence in the rtlslngtof tebacco and his letter follows: :;*r. Deai\. Sir i? Fart y-nf ire pears ago 1 began growing tobacco. A few years later I decided that there were certain days better than others on which to cut tobacco for It to cure up nicely and have a rich "waxy" and heavy body. To find out the way to tell these dates, and to tell them ahead, baa been a hard job, but I was finally successful. To explain, lot me say th*g tobacco has an oily substance. whtt&. 1b its natural pos session. It baa a sap (water) like other vegetation. When the sap rises It runs the oil out through the pores of the leaves, on the principle that oil and water won't mix. and the oil being the lighter, is pushed out by the sap. Tohaaeo cut In this stifle will be light and '"chaffy." You see theiY Is nothing but sap in the tobacoo. and when cured this sap Is gone. St evaporates and leaves the tobacoo light and worthless. But to cut tobacco when the sap Is down and the oil has full sWay, you can pure H up nicely and with a beary toQ^y; It will be rich 'and "waxy." This happens because the tobacco Is full Of oil. Instead of sap, and the oil c^n't evaporate and remains in tt\e tebaooo to make It rich and heavy. It has been my experience th 41 we must eat tobacco whoa there la oil- - 1 n It ir we axpeet to have oil 4AA|then pured.
